BACKGROUND Technical Field

The present invention relates to the cleaning field, and in particular, to a cleaning device.

Description of Related Art

Cleaning devices are necessary tools in people's daily life. There are many types of cleaning devices, mainly including mops, brooms, vacuum cleaners, sweeping robots, etc.

Among purchase options, people usually choose a required cleaning device based on a cleaning requirement and price, but the consumers are all faced with a common problem. Mops, brooms, and vacuum cleaners cannot replace each other, while sweeping robots are too expensive to be used as equivalents of mops or brooms.

To make improvements against the foregoing technical problem, some cleaning device products that integrate sweeping and mopping functions have been put forward on the market, and a main working principle thereof is to directly use a motor-driven roller brush and dispose a waste collection region correspondingly, in an attempt to bring up waste by a rolling action of the roller brush on the ground, and transfer the waste to the waste collection region, thereby cleaning the ground. However, this method is faced with many technical problems when applied to ground cleaning with various cleaning environments, mainly including the following. 1. Because of a material limitation of the roller brush, it is difficult to ensure that dust or sewage on the ground is directionally transferred to the waste collection region. 2. It is difficult to collect sewage absorbed by the roller brush into the waste collection region, leading to gradual deterioration of the cleaning effect of the roller brush and water accumulation on the ground. 3. Because dry waste and wet waste collected in the waste collection region are in a mixed and closed state, the waste collection region is prone to stink after long-term use, resulting in poor use experience; and in addition, because a collection inlet of the waste collection region needs to have a function of directional collection corresponding to the roller brush, when a user lifts the whole cleaning device, the waste in the waste collection region overflows.

In view of this, the applicant hopes to make targeted improvements against the foregoing technical problems, so that a cleaning device can be more easily accepted by mass consumers and bring good cleaning experience.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Specific implementations of the present invention are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention more clearly, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

Embodiment 1. Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 13 , a cleaning device 1 includes a roller brush 2 mounted on a housing and capable of reaching rolling contact with the ground, and the housing includes a mounting housing 11 for mounting the roller brush 2. The mounting housing 11 is integrally assembled by using an upper mounting housing 11 a and a lower mounting housing 11 b. The lower mounting housing 11 b moves on a ground by using a main roller assembly 17 a and an auxiliary roller assembly 17 b, thereby avoiding or reducing frictional contact between the roller brush 2 and the ground. The mounting housing 11 is integrally mounted and connected to a handle 13 by using a torsion head 12. The mounting housing 11 is integrally or separately provided with a waste collection region. In this embodiment, a waste collection box 3 is used in the waste collection region and can be directly clamped on the mounting housing 11 to facilitate actual operation and use such as disassembly, waste cleanup, and waste box cleaning by a user. The waste collection box 3 is provided with a collection inlet 31 corresponding to the roller brush 2, and waste brought up by rolling contact is collected into the waste collection box 3 under a rotating action of the roller brush 2.

When the present application is implemented, the waste collection region is not limited to being located in the mounting housing 11. In another implementation, a person skilled in the art may dispose the waste collection region in another area of the housing based on actual mounting requirements. For example, the handle 13 may also be used as a part of the housing, and the handle 13 is provided with the waste collection region. These all fall within the implementation scope of the present application.

Preferably, in this embodiment, the roller brush 2 includes a driving roller 2 a driven by a drive and relatively rotatably mounted on the mounting housing 11, and a periphery of the driving roller 2 a is wrapped with a flexible roller brush 2 b for flexible contact with the ground. Specifically, in this embodiment, the driving roller 2 a is driven by a drive 7 composed of a motor 71 and a pulley 72, and two ends of the driving roller 2 a are detachably mounted at an output end of the pulley and the mounting housing 11, respectively. A specific mounting structure may be implemented by using conventional technical means in the art.

Materials of the flexible roller brush 2 b include at least two types of cleaning fibers with unequal water absorbencies, the cleaning fibers with a high water absorbency are mainly used to remove liquid waste on the ground, and the cleaning fibers with a low water absorbency are mainly used to remove solid waste on the ground. Specifically, during implementation and application, the cleaning fibers with a high water absorbency may be cotton fibers or fibers with a similar water absorbency, which is usually 1.5-3, more preferably 1.5-2. The cleaning fibers with a low water absorbency may be polyester fibers, with a water absorbency usually not greater than 1.5. To further achieve a better cleaning effect, in this embodiment, the cleaning fibers have a fluff length ranging from 15 mm to 30 mm. The cleaning fibers with a low water absorbency have a fluff length greater than that of the cleaning fibers with a low water absorbency, and a length difference may be set to 1-2 mm.

To meet requirements for cleaning of the ground with waste in different states, in this embodiment, the cleaning fibers with a high water absorbency and the cleaning fibers with a low water absorbency are distributed alternately and spirally on the driving roller 2 a. A ratio of a distribution area of the cleaning fibers with a high water absorbency to a distribution area of the cleaning fibers with a low water absorbency on the flexible roller brush 2 b ranges from 1:(0.5-2.5), and a specific area ratio may be selected based on cleaning needs in specific applications. These are not taken as limitations to this embodiment. When in use, water in fluff of each cleaning fiber on the roller brush 2 can be fully thrown out by a centrifugal force, and it is not easy to leave residual water. After cleaning and use, the fluff of the cleaning fibers on the roller brush 2 can also be dried quickly, thereby avoiding bacterial breeding caused by overwetting.

The mounting housing 11 is provided with one or more scraping guides connected to the collection inlet 31, and each scraping guide reaches flexible pressure contact with the roller brush 2 or the ground, and is configured to scrape off residual waste absorbed by the roller brush 2 or residual waste on the ground and transfer the residual waste to the waste collection box 3, to reduce or avoid waste omission.

Preferably, in this embodiment, the mounting housing 11 is provided with a roller brush scraping guide 4 and a ground scraping guide 5 that are connected to the collection inlet 31 and are located above and below the collection inlet 31, respectively. The roller brush scraping guide 4 reaches flexible pressure contact with the roller brush 2, and is configured to scrape off the residual waste absorbed by the roller brush 2 or the residual waste on the ground and transfer the residual waste to the waste collection box 3. The ground scraping guide 5 reaches pressure contact with the ground, and is configured to scrape off the residual waste on the ground and transfer the residual waste to the waste collection box 3. In a rotating state of the roller brush 2, a directional closed-loop cleaning path is formed among the ground, the roller brush 2, and the waste collection box 3 through linked scraping by the roller brush scraping guide 4 and the ground scraping guide 5, to reduce or avoid waste omission to the greatest extent.

Specifically, preferably, in this embodiment, the roller brush 2 correspondingly matches the mounting housing 11 to form a roller brush scraping guide 4 connected to the collection inlet 31, and the roller brush scraping guide 4 is configured to scrape off the residual waste absorbed by the roller brush 2 and transfer the residual waste to the waste collection box 3. The roller brush scraping guide 4 includes a roller brush scraper 41 located on the mounting housing 11 and reaching flexible pressure contact with the roller brush 2, the roller brush scraper 41 is provided with a liquid storage space, and the liquid storage space is connected to the waste collection box 3 through a drainage path. In specific implementation, the roller brush scraper 41 is arc-shaped, and the roller brush scraper 41 may be integrally connected to the mounting housing 11 or may be separately mounted and connected to the mounting housing 11. No particular limitation is imposed in this embodiment.

Preferably, the roller brush scraper 41 come into interference with the cleaning fibers of the roller brush 2. Specifically, an amount of interference between the roller brush scraper 41 and short fluff of the cleaning fibers is 0.5-2 mm. When the amount of interference is excessively high, the fluff of the cleaning fibers of the roller brush 2 is likely to clump together, and a fluffy state of the cleaning fibers of the roller brush 2 cannot be ensured, resulting in a gap between the cleaning fibers and the ground, and making it impossible to effectively clean out waste on the ground. When the amount of interference is excessively low, an amount of contact between the roller brush scraper 41 and the cleaning fibers of the roller brush 2 is excessively small, leading to a low water scraping effect.

The liquid storage space includes a liquid storage and drainage groove 42 connected to the drainage path, the liquid storage and drainage groove 42 is provided with several scraping holes 43, and through the flexible pressure contact between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2, each of the scraping holes scrapes off the residual waste absorbed by the roller brush 2 and transfers the residual waste to the liquid storage and drainage groove 42. In another implementation, the liquid storage space may alternatively include a liquid storage cavity plate (not shown in the figure) with a liquid storage cavity, the liquid storage cavity plate is provided with several scraping holes 43, and through the flexible pressure contact between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2, each of the scraping holes 43 scrapes off the residual waste absorbed by the roller brush 2 and transfers the residual waste to the water storage cavity plate. A structural design of the liquid storage cavity plate can have a better liquid storage effect and avoid water leakage. Certainly, this may lead to liquid waste residue on the liquid storage cavity plate. A person skilled in the art may select a specific implementation solution based on actual requirements.

In specific implementation of this embodiment, the scraping holes 43 are provided corresponding to the roller brush 2. The scraping holes 43 each may have a diameter range of 0.5-2 mm, and are inclined downward, to ensure that water flowing into the scraping holes 43 does not easily back flow. The drainage path includes a drainage groove 44 located in the mounting housing 11, an inlet of the drainage groove 44 communicates with one or two sides of the liquid storage and drainage groove 42, and an outlet thereof communicates with the waste collection box 3. Further, preferably, a plurality of scraper convex ribs are distributed on a surface that is of the roller brush scraper 41 and that faces the roller brush 2. Such implementation can further improve water scraping efficiency and ensure the fluffy state of the cleaning fibers of the roller brush 2. A height of the scraper convex ribs may be set to 0.2-1 mm.

Specifically, preferably, in this embodiment, the roller brush 2 correspondingly matches the mounting housing 11 to form a ground scraping guide 5 connected to the collection inlet 31, and the ground scraping guide 5 is configured to scrape off the residual waste on the ground and transfer the residual waste to the waste collection box 3 through a rotary motion of the roller brush 2. The ground scraping guide 5 includes a ground scraping bar 51 and a guide surface 52 separately located on the mounting housing 11, the ground scraping bar 51 reaches flexible pressure contact with the ground, and the guide surface 52 is connected to the collection inlet 31. The ground scraping bar 51 extends obliquely in a direction of the roller brush 2. Specifically, in implementation, the ground scraping bar 51 may be a rubber scraping bar, with a front end designed in a shape of a wedge obliquely extending in the direction of the roller brush 2. The ground scraping bar 51 has a Shore A hardness of 40-80, more preferably 45-70. Such implementation can ensure that when the front end of the ground scraper bar 51 reaches contact with the ground, the wedge-shaped part is properly deformed to make the flexible contact between the ground scraping bar and the ground closer, and after the roller brush 2 sweeps the waste on the ground, a sewage film left on the ground can be pushed forward into a mass. Through the rotary motion of the roller brush 2 and guide matching with the guide surface 52, the sewage is collected into the waste collection box 3 without causing water residue on the ground after the cleaning is completed, to significantly improve a sewage collection rate, thereby achieving an effect of scraping off the waste left on the ground.

When the user is pushing the cleaning device forward, if the ground scraping bar 51 cannot swing relative to the guide surface 52, due to a large stress surface, especially due to tension of a water film formed by the ground sewage, the stress center of the ground scraping bar 51 is located in the front of the cleaning device 1, and it is relatively difficult for the user to push the cleaning device 1 forward. To overcome relatively high forward resistance, the cleaning device 1 moves forward unobviously up and down, which leads to a poor water scraping effect of the ground scraping bar 51, and the residual water film is still relatively thick. Therefore, the following is also proposed in this embodiment: the ground scraping bar 51 is mounted on the guide surface 52 in a relatively swinging mode, to adjust resistance on flexible pressure contact between the ground scraping bar 51 and the ground, so that the resistance is smaller. With this structure, when the cleaning device 1 is pushed forward for cleaning, a lower edge position of the ground scraping bar 51 in contact with the ground is stressed to deform backward. When the cleaning device 1 is pulled backward for cleaning, the lower edge position of the ground scraping bar 51 in contact with the ground is stressed to deform forward. The ground scraping bar 51 is still faced with a certain pressure due to a limiting effect of the guide surface 52. Such implementation facilitates quick and flexible squeezing of the sewage film for cleaning, makes a water scraping surface sufficient, significantly reduces liquid or water residue on the ground, achieves a good water scraping effect, and enables the user to perform cleaning easily and conveniently. It should be noted that the ground scraping bar 51 may be directly mounted on the guide surface 52, or an indirect mounting relationship may be used (i.e., there is no direct mounting and connection relationship between the ground scraping bar 51 and the guide surface 52), as long as it is ensured that the ground scraping bar 51 can swing relative to the guide surface 52. Such implementation usually can be used to adjust the resistance on the flexible pressure contact between the ground scraping bar 51 and the ground. These fall within the implementation scope of the present application.

In this embodiment, a water collection stand 53 is formed between the ground scraping bar 51 and two ends of the guide surface 52. For the roller brush, during arrangement of the flexible roller brush 2 b, considering requirements on mounting structures at the two ends of the driving roller 2 a, fluff of the cleaning fibers of the flexible roller brush 2 b cannot fill the two ends, because excessive fluff of the cleaning fibers may cause rotation and winding on two sides of the cleaning device 1. However, such implementation leads to the fact that water released by the roller brush 2 during a rotary centrifugal process is less susceptible to, at positions on two sides, push by the fluff of the cleaning fibers of the roller brush 2 into the collection inlet 31 of the waste collection box 3, but back flows from two ends of the water collection stand 53, resulting in waste omission. Therefore, preferably, in this embodiment, two ends of the ground scraping bar 51 each are provided with a protruding portion 54 to form a recessed backflow collection region 55 located in the middle, and various types of solid or liquid waste in the recessed backflow collection region 55 are thrown (transferred) to the waste collection box 3 through the rotary motion of the roller brush 2. The guide surface 52 of this embodiment may also be referred to as a centrifugal dirt-removing surface, and is arranged opposite to the roller brush 2. Because the protruding portions 54 are arranged at the two ends of the ground scraping bar 51, the recessed backflow collection region 55 with two high sides and a low middle is formed. During operation, sewage at the two ends of the water collection stand 53 is gathered toward the middle through the recessed backflow collection region 55, and is cleaned by the roller brush 2 again, thereby avoiding forming two sewage marks on the two sides of the cleaning device 1 and improving a cleaning effect.

In practical deep application, the applicant found that when the cleaning device is used to clean a wet ground with liquid waste, even if the roller brush 2 squeezes water through the flexible pressure contact with the roller brush scraper 41, sewage inevitably flows downward and drips, resulting in sewage omission. Therefore, preferably, in this embodiment, the bottom of the lower mounting housing 11 b is provided with a receiving and flow guiding groove 18 connected to the guide surface 52, the receiving and flow guiding groove 18 is located below the roller brush 2 and is connected to two sides of the guide surface 52 to form a closed receiving and flow guiding groove structure, which is configured to receive liquid drops dropped when the roller brush 2 rotates (including receiving liquid drops dropped when the roller brush scraping guide 4 reaches flexible pressure contact with the roller brush 2). The guide surface 52 of the ground scraping guide 5 throws the sewage in the receiving and flow guiding groove into the waste collection box 3 again.

However, because dry waste and wet waste collected in the waste collection box 3 are in a mixed and closed state, the waste collection box 3 is prone to stink after long-term use, resulting in poor use experience. Preferably, in this embodiment, the waste collection box 3 includes a lower liquid waste collection region 32 and an upper solid waste collection region 33 that are separated from each other, where the solid waste collection region 32 is provided with the collection inlet 31 corresponding to the roller brush 2, and a filter partition 34 is arranged between the solid waste collection region 32 and the liquid waste collection region 33. The filter partition 34 is provided with one or more rows of grooves 34 a, and several filter holes 34 b distributed at intervals are provided in the grooves 34 a. In actual use, all waste first enters the solid waste collection region 32 through the collection inlet 31, while the liquid waste flows into the liquid waste collection region 33 through the filter holes 34 b. Such implementation meets requirements of the user for classified waste dumping, and reduces and avoids stinking caused by long-term mixing of dry waste and wet waste.

Preferably, in this embodiment, a solid waste collection box with the collection inlet 31 is used in the solid waste collection region 32, and a liquid waste collection box is used in the liquid waste collection region 33. The solid waste collection box and the liquid waste collection box are mounted and connected into a whole. The filter partition 34 is used at the bottom of the solid waste collection box, and a cover plate 35 of the solid waste collection box is a detachable cover plate that can be selectively opened. In practical application, when dumping waste, the user may first take out the solid waste collection box and dump the dry waste collected in the solid waste collection box into a waste bin, and then dump the liquid waste collected in the liquid waste collection box into a pool for discharge.

Because the cleaning device 1 is usually provided with a torsion head 12, the user may lift the whole cleaning device 1 during daily use. Such implementation causes the handle 13 and the mounting housing 11 with the roller brush 2 to be horizontal and perpendicular, so that the collection inlet 31 of the waste collection box 3 is horizontal, and various types of waste in the solid waste collection box and the liquid waste collection box may leak or overflow, resulting in pollution to the ground and the cleaning device body. Therefore, preferably, in this embodiment, the solid waste collection box includes a solid waste collection box side plate 33 a located on a side of the collection inlet 31, the solid waste collection box side plate 33 a is provided with a solid anti-overflow limiting portion 33 b obliquely extending to the inside of the solid waste collection box, and the solid anti-overflow limiting portion 33 b is located below the collection inlet 31. The liquid waste collection box includes a liquid waste collection box side plate 32 a located on a side of the collection inlet 31, and the liquid waste collection box side plate 32 a is hermetically sleeved outside the solid waste collection box side plate 33 a. In addition, the liquid waste collection box side plate 32 a is provided with a liquid anti-overflow limiting portion 32 b obliquely extending to the inside of the liquid waste collection box, and the liquid anti-overflow limiting portion 32 b is located below the filter partition 34. The solid anti-overflow limiting portion 33 b and the liquid anti-overflow limiting portion 32 b may specifically have a shape of a plate rib, and can separately and effectively prevent waste from overflowing from the collection inlet 31.

To ensure mounting and connection strength between the liquid waste collection box and the solid waste collection box and improve mounting convenience, in this embodiment, an end portion of the liquid waste collection box side plate 32 a is provided with an outwardly extending protruding stand 32 c located outside the collection inlet 31, and the outwardly extending protruding stand 32 c is in guided connection to a lower end of the collection inlet 31.

Preferably, in this embodiment, the bottom of the liquid waste collection box is provided with a mop mounting region, and a cleaning mop 16 that can reach contact with the ground is arranged in the mop mounting region. A structure of a limiting mounting groove 15 b formed by convex ribs 15 a is used in the mop mounting region. The cleaning mop 16 is made of fluff fibers, and the convex ribs 15 a are made of rubber. During use of this product, an extremely thin water film left on the ground after ground cleaning by the roller brush 2 may be wiped out and absorbed by using the cleaning mop 16 in the limiting mounting groove 15 b, so that the cleaned ground can be quickly dried, avoiding a possible risk of falling of the user caused by an excessively slippery ground, and it is convenient for the user to pick, place, and clean the cleaning mop. In actual maintenance, the rubber convex ribs 15 a around the limiting mounting groove 15 b may be used as squeezing ribs, and have a shore A hardness of 50-100, so that after dumping wet waste, the user can conveniently press the liquid waste collection box on a wall of a water pool to squeeze out water and keep the cleaning mop dry. The cleaning mop 16 is preferably made of a flannelette material with a water absorbency of 1.1-1.5. Such implementation can ensure absorption of the residual water film on the ground, and can prevent the cleaning mop 16 from absorbing excessive water, which causes drying difficulty and bacterial breeding.

This embodiment further proposes a liquid sprayer 6 of the cleaning device 1, which is mounted on the mounting housing 11 of the cleaning device 1. The liquid sprayer 6 includes a liquid storage region for storing a cleaning liquid, and a liquid storage box is specifically used in the liquid storage region. The liquid storage box 61 selectively sprays the cleaning liquid onto the ground and/or the roller brush 2 by using an electric pump 67 (or a mechanical pump in another embodiment), and an outlet of the liquid storage box 61 is provided with a valve body 62 that is in driving connection to the mechanical pump or the electric pump. The mechanical pump or the electric pump is connected to at least one nozzle through a liquid spray pipeline 63, and the cleaning liquid is sprayed on the ground and/or the roller brush 2 through the nozzle. In this embodiment, the liquid storage box 61 is mounted on the handle 13, specifically in the front of the handle 13, and the nozzle is mounted on the mounting housing 11. The liquid spray pipeline 63 runs through the torsion head 12 and then is connected to the nozzle. In this embodiment, the liquid spray pipeline 63 is led from the upper handle 13 to a front end of the lower mounting housing 11, instead of being directly arranged on the lower mounting housing 11, thereby facilitating disassembly and assembly of the liquid storage box 61 by the user. Moreover, the liquid spray pipeline 63 is routed and mounted in a closed structure, and therefore is not exposed to the outside or easily collided, facilitating overall aesthetics of the cleaning device 1. The liquid storage box 61 is arranged in the front of the handle 13. Such implementation can allow the center of gravity of the handle 13 to move forward and maintain a standing state of the handle 13, thereby avoiding a risk that the handle-type cleaning device 1 is prone to fall down.

In this embodiment, the liquid sprayer 6 includes a ground nozzle 64 for spraying the cleaning liquid to the ground and a roller brush nozzle (not shown in the figure) for spraying the cleaning liquid to the roller brush 2, and the liquid spray pipeline 63 includes a ground liquid spray pipe branch 63 a connected to the ground nozzle 64 and a roller brush pipe branch (not shown in the figure) connected to the roller brush nozzle. Through this structural design, the cleaning device 1 of this embodiment can wet the cleaning fibers on the roller brush 2 through the roller brush nozzle when cleaning a ground with heavy-duty waste such as dark soy sauce and tomato sauce, and under actions of a rotating centrifugal force of the roller brush 2 and the roller brush scraper 41, contaminated cleaning fibers on the roller brush 2 can be continuously cleaned, so that the roller brush 2 is quickly self-cleaned. The ground nozzle 64 is arranged corresponding to the ground, the roller brush nozzle is arranged corresponding to the roller brush 2, and the ground nozzle 64 and the roller brush nozzle are separately mounted on the mounting housing 11. The liquid spray pipeline 63 runs through the torsion head and then is connected to the ground nozzle 64 and the roller brush nozzle, that is, the ground nozzle 64 and the roller brush nozzle are connected to corresponding liquid storage boxes 61 respectively through the liquid spray pipeline 63. Certainly, in another implementation, the ground nozzle 64 or the roller brush nozzle may be provided alone, and may be independently implemented to obtain positive effects. In another implementation, independent liquid spray pipelines and liquid storage boxes may also be selected for the ground nozzle 64 and the roller brush nozzle based on actual needs.

Preferably, in this embodiment, the mounting housing 11 located at a front end of the roller brush 2 is provided with a spray port 66 for inserting the ground nozzle 64, and the ground nozzle 64 sprays the cleaning liquid (usually water) onto the ground, to prevent or reduce the spraying of the cleaning liquid on the mounting housing 11. In addition, the roller brush nozzle is mounted on the mounting housing 11 and arranged correspondingly to the roller brush 2, and the roller brush nozzle sprays the cleaning liquid onto the roller brush 2 for self-cleaning of the roller brush 2. In this embodiment, the ground nozzle 64 is mounted at the front end of the roller brush 2, is close to the ground, and has a low height. Such implementation facilitates uniform spraying of a water flow, and prevents the sprayed water from splashing to make the ground very wet or prevents spraying on the housing of the cleaning device 1. The ground nozzle 64 is flat and inclined, which facilitates downward spraying of water in a sector shape, and makes the sprayed water flow more uniform. Specifically, preferably, the ground nozzle 64 is provided in an inclined shape, and an included angle between the ground nozzle 64 and a horizontal plane is not greater than 30°, preferably 5-20°, and most preferably 15°, to ensure a better spray and atomization effect of the water flow, and avoid spraying too far away and wetting indoor appliances.

In this embodiment, as described above, the roller brush 2 is relatively rotatably mounted on the mounting housing 11 by using the drive 7 composed of the motor 71 and the pulley 72, and can reach rolling contact with the ground. The motor 71 specifically uses a battery 73 as a power supply, and the motor 71 and the battery 73 are mounted on two sides of the mounting housing 11, respectively. The liquid spray pipeline 63 is close to a side, of the mounting housing 11, on which the battery 73 is mounted. The liquid spray pipeline 63 passes through the side of the battery 73 rather than the side of the motor 71. Such implementation ensures safety of the cleaning device 1, and can achieve an effect of cooling the battery 73 to a certain extent, thereby prolonging a service life of the battery 73.

In this embodiment, to facilitate a supporting and shaping effect of the liquid spray pipeline 63 during arrangement, the liquid spray pipeline 63 includes a supporting and shaping liquid spray pipe section 63 b wound around a periphery of the waste collection box 3, and the supporting and shaping liquid spray pipe section 63 b is separately connected to the ground liquid spray pipe branch 63 a and the roller brush pipe branch. Such implementation can improve and simplify the structural designs of the ground liquid spray pipe branch 63 a and the roller brush pipe branch, and ensure mounting and supporting strength of each pipe branch.

Embodiment 2. In Embodiment 1, when the amount of interference between the roller brush scraper 41 and the cleaning fibers on the roller brush 2 is excessively high under a sweeping condition, the cleaning fibers on the roller brush 2 become flaky after being wetted, leading to a small dust holding capacity of the fluff of the cleaning fibers, which is not beneficial to an effect of cleaning out the waste on the ground. Moreover, when a mopping condition is performed upon completion of the sweeping condition, the amount of interference between the roller brush scraper 41 and the cleaning fibers on the roller brush 2 in Embodiment 1 can be increased. The water on the cleaning fibers can be scraped out to a greater extent by the roller brush scraper 41, and the residual water film on the ground can be substantially cleaned out by repeating the operation. Such implementation solves the problem that it takes a long time to dry the ground after ground cleaning, and further increases dryness of the cleaning fibers on the roller brush 2 to avoid secondary pollution to the cleaned ground caused by bacteria breeding. Therefore, in Embodiment 2, a cleaning device 1′ is proposed, and the technical solutions are the same as those in Embodiment 1 except the following. Further referring to FIG. 14 and FIG. 15 , in Embodiment 2, the roller brush scraper 41 is separately mounted and connected to the mounting housing 11, and a distance between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2 can be adjusted through a lifting motion, so that an effect of flexible pressure contact between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2 is adjusted to meet cleaning requirements under different cleaning conditions. Increasing the distance between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2 under a sweeping condition is beneficial to a ground sweeping effect of the roller brush 2, and reducing the distance between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2 under a mopping condition is beneficial to a ground mopping effect. Embodiment 2 further proposes the following specific structure to implement adjustment of the distance between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2.

The mounting housing 11 includes a roller brush cover plate 11 c mounted in a split mode. The roller brush scraper 41 is arranged on an inner side of the roller brush cover plate 11 c. The roller brush cover plate 11 c is capable of performing a lifting motion relative to the mounting housing 11, and the lifting motion adjusts the distance between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2, to adjust the effect of flexible pressure contact between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2 and meet cleaning requirements under different cleaning conditions. Specifically, in this embodiment, a cover plate drive 8 is mounted between the roller brush cover plate 11 c and the mounting housing 11, and the roller brush cover plate 11 c is capable of performing a lifting motion relative to the mounting housing 11 by using the cover plate drive 8, and the lifting motion adjusts a distance between the roller brush cover plate 11 c and the roller brush 2.

In this embodiment, the cover plate drive 8 is a mechanical drive. The mechanical drive includes a limiting protruding stand 81 fixedly mounted at a lower end of the roller brush cover plate 11 c, and the mounting housing 11 is provided with a limiting sliding groove 82 into which the limiting protruding stand 81 is selectively limited and inserted. The limiting protruding stand 81 is provided with limiting teeth 81 a, the bottom of the limiting sliding groove 82 is provided with a limiting groove 82 a, and a spring 83 is arranged between the limiting teeth 81 a and the limiting groove 82 a. In actual use, when the roller brush cover plate 11 c is pressed downward, the spring 83 is stressed and compressed to drive the limiting teeth 81 a to move downward until the limiting protruding stand 81 of the roller brush cover plate 11 c is limited and inserted into the limiting sliding groove 82. In addition, the limiting teeth 81 a are clamped into the limiting groove 82 a. In this case, the distance between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2 is reduced, and the cleaning device is under the mopping condition. The roller brush cover plate 11 c is pressed downward again, and in this case, the limiting protruding stand 81 is no longer limited and inserted into the limiting sliding groove 82, and the spring 83 is reset. In addition, the limiting teeth 81 a and the limiting groove 82 a are disengaged from the clamped state. In this case, the distance between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2 is increased, and the cleaning device is under the sweeping condition. A distance adjustment range implemented by the foregoing mechanical drive may be 1-3 mm, and may be specifically selected based on actual cleaning requirements. No particular limitation is imposed in this embodiment. In another implementation, the cover plate drive 8 may be an electric drive or an electromagnetic coil drive, as long as the distance between the roller brush scraper 41 and the roller brush 2 is adjusted. A person skilled in the art can make conventional technical alternatives for the cover plate drive 8 on the basis of this technical idea. These alternatives all fall within the protection concept scope of the present invention.

The above are only the preferred implementations of the present invention, and it should be noted that for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several improvements and modifications may be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present invention.
